Setting Up TV Connections

!

The following connections may not be available in some countries or areas.

The best method to connect your computer system, TV monitor or display, and cable service access, depends on the type of cable connection available in your home.

TV signal reception strength will vary widely depending on service availability in your area as well as the type of connection available.

One primary cable to connect the computer to a cable service access or a TV antenna is the TV coaxial cable (1) (supplied with selected models only). One end connects to the computer's VHF/UHF input port, and the other end connects to the cable service access or to the antenna.
